After catching a question about why a popular rightwing character’s Twitter X account was suspended, petulant oligarch Elon Musk “x’ed” that the account was blocked because it was posting images of child porn moments before reporting that the X team had erased the images and the account had been restored.
The account of QAnon influencer Dom Lucre, the self-declared “breaker of narratives,” was identified as one “posting child exploitation pictures associated with the criminal conviction of an Australian man in the Philippines,” Musk posted. Three minutes later, Musk replied to his own post, “Only people on our CSE team have seen the pictures. For now, we will delete those posts and reinstate this account.” Apparently, there’s no punishment on the new X if you’re caught spreading child porn; it just gets erased and the crime forgotten.
